An alternative to slaving over a hot stove basting the turkey. This hardy bunch elected to go for an early morning swim in the Serpentine (a lake in Hyde Park). What quirky activities happen in your region on Xmas Day?
Wow - that's a refreshing, invigorating, eye-opening way to spend part of Christmas DAy! They look like Polar bears. We'll be sledding on the snow behind Grandma & Grandpa's house today!
What a great picture! I love the legs sticking out of the water! All different ages shapes and sizes - the way it should be. They look like they are having so much fun. Very nice here in Montreal today.
oooh that looks cold - you wouldn't get me in there! Quirky things here...hmm well since we have summer at this time of year i guess you'd consider it strange that spend alot of time at the beach.

I prefer to be in the warm with a turkey....Happy Christmas!
There are a number of brave? (foolhardy?) souls who waterski on the Mississipi River, in wet suits, but...why?!
Here, there is a group of people who do a New Year's Day swim in the Boston Harbor. Not my idea of fun!
We do this in Russia on Epiphany - Jan. 18th :)

Wow , definitely not for me ;) what fun it was to see them, did you have a quick swim too ?
Wonderful action shot. So much people going back and forth.
Snow shoveling probably is the thing here. I went to the gym too. That´s about it for me.

Hi Mo,
What a great picture! I love the legs sticking out of the water! All different ages shapes and sizes - the way it should be. They look like they are having so much fun. Very nice here in Montreal today.
Thanks for sharing this London moment with us.
Cheers and all the best to you!

Now I'm the first to love a swim, but this is sheer madness!! Love it, and glad you were there to catch the scene.
Hope you had a fabulous Christmas.
Crazy people! :)

That is really good photo!
Pretty much the same here, they swim across the old port. But then it is much warmer here.
